Feta cheese, oregano, zucchini, and kalamata olives are traditional Greek ingredients that work wonderfully in lasagna, and pair well with whole wheat or whole grain lasagna sheets. Leftovers freeze and reheat very well.
1 lb whole wheat or whole grain lasagna noodles
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 onion, diced
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 (10 ounce) packages frozen chopped spinach, thawed, excess liquid squeezed out
2 medium zucchini, sliced
1 tomato, chopped
1 teaspoon ground oregano
1 (16 ounce) jar prepared marinara sauce
½ cup kalamata olives, sliced
1 cup part-skim ricotta cheese
⅔ cup crumbled feta cheese
1 egg, beaten
Freshly ground black pepper

I made this lasagna and it was delicious. I didn’t have marinara sauce so I use fire-roasted tomato and garlic sauce and I didn’t put kalamata olives because my daughter doesn’t like it but other than that use all the other ingredients and the lasagna came out good and delicious.
I’d like the nutritional values
Hi Deborah, if you hover over where it says nutrition, the values will pop up. Thank you!
Hi,
What do you do with the chopped tomato? Did I miss something?
Thank you.
Hi there, it is added in step 3, with the other vegetables. Enjoy!
Very good. I added mushrooms and fresh spinach which I cooked with onions and zuccchini. I used no boil lasagna noodles so I needed to add about a cup and a half of extra water to sauce. Familyloved it.
this recipe is very interesting! i would prefer non-processed ingredients and would like to use my own marinara sauce and fresh spinach, not frozen. Can you tell me how much fresh spinach to use? I really like the promise of flavors and the simple nutrition that this recipe shares with us.
Hi there. Feel free to adapt this recipe as you would like! A 10 oz package of frozen spinach is the equivalent about a 1 pound bunch of fresh spinach. Let us know how it goes, enjoy!
This was SO good!! I will be making this again…… and again and again!!!!
This was amazing. did add mushrooms but that was it.
I would like to try the recipe
